7.Why was Jackie McNamara given almost 500k to spend in transfer fee's alone this season if cash flow is such a problem ?

9. Are the rumours true that the manager financially benefits from giving young players he has signed, their starting debuts, but gets no such gains from giving young players he inherited from our own academy the same priviledge, hence why only one academy player (Marc McCallum) has been given a starting debut during his tenure and, that this has lead to tensions between the manager and Stevie Campbell?

10 would it be possible to stop questioning every move the club does or does not make. I personally don't give a #### about 1,2,5,6,7,8 or 9.Roll on the Saturday so we can talk about the team on the park.

which leads me too

9.If David Southern was appointed to take over the day-to-day running of the club with a view to ST departing,why is ST still picking up a 6 figure a year wage from the club?

You could always give the thread a swerve.

That would be question 10.

Thompson owns the club, just as he has chosen to put money into the club in the past he now chooses to take some out. That's what owners do.

If you're happy with the way things are and don't feel the need for any questions to be asked that's upto you mate.

I'm glad we have supporters who question everything.

Btw the soft loans the Thompson's have put in to the club are paid back.....with interest.

Wonder where the other 500k of transfer fees went though.

And why there's also a 125k increase in Directors emoluments.

I for one would quite like to know.

Will you answer any questions? Will you not let your puppets do the talking?

Owners also treat clubs like a business, which is fine in my book, but when your running a business and your main clientele that you depend on to keep running said club/business are, in some quarters, in unrest and wanting answers and the media are running with it then you need to address it.

Having a wall of silence can be construed as arrogant and suspicious, not that I am saying our chairman is acting like either of those, and hopefully an official statement or a Q&A with the fed would help ease the current discontent with some of the fans and federations.

Bang on Siebby.

Just saw Jim Spence on Twitter, about an hour ago he shared the statement from the trust and he also said "@dundeeunitedfc chairman tells me there is no comment".

To perform as a patsy?

What I found interesting was bit about the shares.

Now I might be adding 2+2 and getting 5, but was that an invitation to sell his/their shares to any party in the background for 88,000 x £33

I read it as Fed/Atrust calling his bluff regards the continued line about the Thompson Family being millions out of pocket due to the club.

The soft loans are paid back with interest,and if they sold everyone of those shares at the same rate they'de be reimbursed.

If they are however trying to do someone else's bidding for them it'll come out in the wash in due course i think.
